On the night of July 13, the USF struck 15 vessels of Russia's shadow fleet, including tankers and dry cargo ships. Strikes were also carried out on the Kuban-Crimea energy bridge, and 4 air defense elements were destroyed.
Fighters of the Unmanned Systems Forces continue to strike ships of Russia's "shadow fleet," as well as energy facilities that power Crimea and other occupied territories, UNN reports citing a statement by Commander of the USF Robert Brovdi ("Madyar").
"On the night of July 13, the Freedom-Loving Ukrainian Bird of the USF hunted 15 vessels of Russia's shadow fleet: 7 tankers, 5 dry cargo ships, 1 ferry, and 2 tugboats.
In total, during the period of July 6-13, effective strikes were carried out against 105 vessels," Madyar reported.
According to Brovdi, fighters strike the enemy's logistics infrastructure every night, thereby limiting the movement of vessels and their unloading.
In addition, the operation to blackout the peninsula continued.
July 12-13: In Crimea and the rest of the occupied territories, 9 power nodes-substations of various capacities and the strategic electricity flow point of the Kuban-Crimea power bridge from Russia, "Crimea," were struck for the second time in 48 hours.
"Four air defense elements were hunted down. One S-400 'Triumf' launcher, one 'Tor' air defense system, and two radar systems were destroyed," Madyar reported.
Most of the strikes were carried out by FP drones manufactured by the Ukrainian company Fire Point. This is evidenced by the characteristic green heart instead of a crosshair.
